About Gas Town

One of the oldest commercial districts in Vancouver, Gas Town is the place to eat and shop until you drop. The cuisines range from local seafood to gourmet and it does not stop there. The souvenir shops are hard to stay away from and always have something for the wandering tourist. Gas Town is incomplete without a visit to its famous steam clock. The 'original settlement', Gas Town is a town of character and is a must for anyone visiting Vancouver.
